Suzanne Teng & Gilbert Levy are married musical partners who create original instrumental music that is ethereal and
exotic, soulful and healing and “sensual and serene,” as described by Billboard Magazine. They have released seven
critically acclaimed albums that have garnered them numerous prestigious international awards such as the Independent
Music Awards (twice), International Acoustic Music Awards, Los Angeles Music Awards, New Mexico Music Awards,
Akademia Music Awards, Global Music Awards (gold medal), Peace Song Awards, Native American Style Flute Awards
(album of the year) and InterContinental Music Awards.
Their recordings have been licensed for hundreds of film, television, commercial and video productions and was featured
on NBC’s America’s Got Talent. Appreciated for its sacred, relaxing and heart opening qualities, their works can be heard
on numerous healing soundtracks and was chosen by the pharmaceutical company Genentech who created a CD with a
compilation of their pieces that was distributed to over 50,000 cancer patients to aid in their recovery.
The Whole Life Timeswrites that they “lift the listener to a place where beauty, ecstasy and tranquility reside.”
Originally from Berkeley, California, Suzanne received her Master’s degree in music from Boston University’s School for
the Arts and, after traveling the globe, pursued her Ph.D. in ethnomusicology at UCLA where her focus was on music and
healing. She plays a large array of global flutes and specializes on the western alto and bass flutes for which she is an
endorsed artist for YAMAHA. Her playing can be heard on commercials for Kleenex, Dodge and Johnnie Walker, on
hundreds of major and independent label albums, and on video game, film and television soundtracks. She has performed
on national television, including live performances on several of CBS’s Survivor finale shows, which were seen by over 70
million viewers.
Gilbert was born and raised in New Orleans where he began playing drums at an early age and by his late teens was
performing professionally in R&B bands in clubs on Bourbon Street and with jazz greats such as Wynton and Branford
Marsalis. He moved to Los Angeles in his late 20’s and played pop music in numerous bands and on several major label
recording projects before gravitating towards world drums. He plays African and Middle Eastern hand percussion, the
metal melodic hand pan drums and has expanded his musical vocabulary on numerous stringed instruments such as the
Turkish saz, African ngoni, bass dulcimer and hybrid guitar Inuk. He also uses his extraordinary technical expertise to
engineer and mix their award-winning recordings. Teng & Levy also record and produce albums for others and have
composed music for yoga and acupuncture DVDs and several films including the documentaries “Raw for 30” and “Beirut
Rising.”
Suzanne and Gilbert live in Santa Fe where they raise their teenage son Miles, two cats and a coop of chickens. They record
their award-winning music at their home studio, Dragonfly Studios
